    x86/fpu: Don't export __kernel_fpu_{begin,end}() · 12209993
    Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
    There is one user of __kernel_fpu_begin() and before invoking it,
    it invokes preempt_disable(). So it could invoke kernel_fpu_begin()
    right away. The 32bit version of arch_efi_call_virt_setup() and
    arch_efi_call_virt_teardown() does this already.
    
    The comment above *kernel_fpu*() claims that before invoking
    __kernel_fpu_begin() preemption should be disabled and that KVM is a
    good example of doing it. Well, KVM doesn't do that since commit
    
      f775b13e
    
     ("x86,kvm: move qemu/guest FPU switching out to vcpu_run")
    
    so it is not an example anymore.
    
    With EFI gone as the last user of __kernel_fpu_{begin|end}(), both can
    be made static and not exported anymore.
